Comments

forgot to put that I'd transferred £31 to my £365 in 365 days so i now have £124 plus i got £2.99 from the bank for interest so i've saved £124.99 since january :T it's coming along nicely and this will go towards my car insurance in November as I like to just pay it upfront in one payment, one less DD to worry about lol
walked into town to get DD a brown curly wig but couldn't find any you'd think it's be simple wouldn't you :mad: so got her a pocahontas dress and wig for her book day tomorrow. MY DS was meant to going to nursery in him jammies tomorrow but because he's such a good helper they're taking all the kids who are really good to a ice-cream factory tomorrow so he's well chuffed!!!!!!! :T he's such a helpful wee thing and he's only 4 so long may it continue
Also got my eyebrows waxed cost me £5.50 was passing a little beauty place and popped in as the 2 I have used have either reduced there hours and only work on the days I work or they've closed down :eek: so they took me there and then and now i feel much better and wasn't that sore so will be going to them for more treatments as they're very reasonably priced lolNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050 -
Hi Abba
I wouldn't know where to buy a wig from either, I bet DD was delighted with her new outift.
Eyebrow waxing sounds painful, I can just about tolerate mine been threaded even the beautician laughs at me wincing with the pain xx0 -
it is painful but it's quick and this place didn't have me walking about with a face like a smacked A*se lol like the last couple of times so i seem to have found somewhere that i like lolNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050

Hi :wave:
thought that I would drop by and say firstly well done on the debt busting and the sheer determination that you are showing through your diary. :T
Secondly, for closing the door on your ex and from the sounds of things its slammed, locked and bolted. It is hard bringing 2 little one's up on your own, but I strongly believe that children are happier with one parent than with two that are miserable.
Your children will grow up and will have such a good role model in you, their mother. They will see how much you have blossomed since you separated and will look back with happiness. They will appreciate everything that you have done for them and from your debt busting this in turn will give them valuable life lessons which they will carry forwards with them.

aww thank you burntfingers
When I first left the hubby my DD was exctaly like him would constantly keep going on at you for something til you snap and once they got what they wanted they would move onto the next thing....so annoying and very sore for the head
Now I'm so proud of DD (DS too young but he never asks for anything....yet) she always checks the sale rail, when out in the supermarket she'll check if we can get a similar product cheaper and she saves her pocket money up and buys things she really wants but never pays the full price for example she really wanted JLS new album but didn't want to pay £10 for it so she waited til a couple of songs came out and then bought it for £4.84.....she was so chuffed and if theres something she really wants she does extra chores then checks ebay for me lol can't believe in the change in her and she also follows this diary and shes amazed how well we're doing as I've promised them a holiday abroad next year when everything is paid off x
I'm hoping she learns from this as we've scrimped and saved but it'll be so worth it when it's all away x
And yes the door is welded shut............i don't go back just forwards lolNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050 -
